They can also monitor road conditions by receiving radio signals sent out from orbiting satellites and greatly reduce yo

6、ur chances of getting stuck in traffic jams.Unit3常言道,好的开端是成功的一半。在求职时,求职者事先做好充分的准备是非常重要的。我认为,事先做不做准备显然会影响求职者的成功机会。我的一位朋友在一家大型计算机软件公司供职,年薪十万美元左右。根据自己的经历告诉我说,那些面试未来雇员的具有录用决定权的人喜欢有充分准备的人。那些没有在了解未来雇主方面尽全力的人很难有成功的希望。Well begun, half done, as the saying goes.

7、o do his homework while seeking employment.

He told me that fr

8、om his own experience the decision makers who interview prospective employees like people who are well prepared.

9、来说,英语变得越来越重要。另一方面,许多海外学子近年来回归祖国,因为他们看好中国经济的长期增长前景。因特网加强了中国年轻人和其他地方年轻人的联系。他们跟踪最新的潮流,模仿外国时尚。他们中有一些人似乎不在乎中国的传统美德,更不要说发扬光大,这使得有人忧虑中国传统文化会不会有一天终将消失。Globalization has great implications for young Chinese. For example, young farmers are moving on a large scale to urban areas for jobs. And for those young p

10、eople who aspire to study abroad or work in foreign-invested enterprises, English has become increasingly important.

12、cultureUnit5就我来说,我发现外表往往是靠不住的,譬如,要是你仅凭外表去判断诸如爱德华海德伯顿这样的人,你就错了。外表上,伯顿像是个表里一致的人。他个子很小,满头白发,有着一双温和、蔚蓝的眼睛,文雅且坦率。然而,他原来却是十分的残忍。他侮辱和愚弄穷困潦倒的伦尼,让他去做那样的蠢事。更让人吃惊的是,他对伦尼的死全然冷漠无情。毫无疑问,他是个铁石心肠的家伙。For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance, you might be wrong if you judged

13、by appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel he insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit him

Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.Unit6当今我们处于持续的压力之下,要工作更长的时间,要生产更多,拥有更多。许多人有一种错误的认识:幸福就在于拼命地干,使劲地赚。许多妇女今天感到同样的压力,压我工作,要出人头地,而与此同时,又要养育子女,承担起家庭责任的负担。研究表明,工作狂往往使我们与家人的

15、关系疏远。它会迫使我们长时间辛苦劳作,仅留微乎其微的时间与我们的亲人呆在一起、交流感情。家庭成员间的亲密关系在此过程中注定要消亡。Today we are under constant pressure to work longer hours, to produce more, and to possess more. Lots of people hold the wrong perception that happiness lies in working hard and earning well /good money.Many women today feel the same s

16、tress to work and get ahead and, at the same time, to nurture their offspring and shoulder the burden of domestic responsibilities.Research shows that workaholism tends to distance us from our immediate families.
